Unwritten rules that they expect you to instinctively know without anyone having to tell you.

This is why I don't date NTs. That and my first girlfriend cheated on me.

That they all just talk through each other when in a group :o I don't understand how they can understand each other at all.

What most folks do not know is the history behind this. This actually comes from prison and it signifies to the other prisoners that they are another prisoner's wife.

Edit: This is wrong.

I can answer this. Because to some people it is not just about the trash. It is more about the emotions that surround it. This is difficult for me as well. What this person wants you to do is to volunteer to take the trash out. They want you to say "I have this handled." It makes them feel you are considering their feelings of consideration for them. It shows that you care about them. In the workplace it is called taking initiative. This person wants you to show that you care. This is an abstract concept. When you offer to take trash out for them it represents to them the idea that you care about them.

You,I and others on here think more in the concrete which means we would care more about the trash and that it was taken out by a certain day.
I had no idea that people worked this way. My parents would always just tell me explicitly what they wanted me to do as a kid, though that may be due to not getting the hints.

Very curious.

Anybody else bothered by how so many people are so quick to judge their friends, and always seem to be talking poorly of others?

Arrggh, I can't stand that kind of negative energy. Any kind of NT social "drama" gets to me. I hate stories.

My biggest issue with NTs? They think the absolute worse of their lot, iow our bullies, are "good people".

Three things:

NT's boozing to get heavily drunk. Once they're drunk, they'll tend to act like crazy old school Daffy Duck and do dangerous things. I don't consider this as fun.

Rioting regardless if your favorite sports teams win or lose.

NT's getting jealous and angry at you when you non-romantically converse with their romantic partners.

The way NTs (especially NT females) immediately start making connections with people they've just met. (I tend to be pretty reserved until I know a person better)

"Banter" - how is insulting someone who's your friend a fun thing to do?

The desire to communicate with very little detail, at times

About asking a question where an honest answer is bound to hurt them emotionally. Yet they ask & expect everyone to lie or tell them its OK.
Do not ask me if that dress makes you look fat. I am going to TELL you if it does or does not! Actually I dodged this one once by claiming I need to consult my attorney. :lol:

Sincerely,
Matthew

The way people (especially women) let fashion dictate.
